[antiquerose123]

Hi there:

Not sure about this Ashtray.  Seems to have only one cig rest on it.  Kinda a blue color.  Do not think it is Murano but leaning towards (poss) Czech, or Sweden/Danish .............. as a guess??  Kinda has pinched sides to it.  Base does show wear.


Help...........any idea on Year or maker?   Thanks as always..

Hi Rose,
Reminds me of Rudolf Jurnikl asytray for Rosice, not 100% sure if its the same from your photos or not. Should measure around 6.75 inch in diameter. Also not completely sure now I think about it if the Rosice one has pinched sides or not!

Not Rosice, I don't think because that's pressed. Viking?

Not sure, but IMHO I did not think it was pressed as I see no seams of any type.  Looks like those made by Murano (the other ones I have here) as I see no difference to them.......so I do not think it is pressed. 

Just looks like murano glass would but with those pinched in sides....Not like some of the other pressed glass I have here ??

so I Dunno

Hi Rose, I think Christine was referring to the Rosice suggestion being pressed and your piece not.

The base pic is a little hard to see in detail. I think Czech may be worth investigating.
